Suede’s Winning ‘Project Runway’ Dress Sold Out in Less Than a Day

Last week on Project Runway Natalie Portman loved Suede’s dress so much she said she’d wear it. Eh, we thought it looked more like an Easter-egg basket than a hot red-carpet look for a classy starlet like Portman, but maybe that’s why we’re not classy starlets like Portman. Anyway, she helped Suede win the grand prize: seeing his dress made and sold on Bluefly.com. Today Bluefly announced that the 150 re-creations of Suede’s winning design it put up for sale at $286 sold out in less than a day. How did Suede respond to this? We’ll answer that question with another question: Are you sure you want to know? He says in a press release:

“I was so excited about this challenge and really wanted to win. Selling my dress on Bluefly is the opportunity of a lifetime. I knew I had to pull out all of the stops to impress this client and especially celebrity judge Natalie Portman, and Suede, “ROCKED IT!” And, now to see the customers responding to my “winning look” like this what a thrill. It is a million times better than immunity! Suede LOVES that!!!”

Okay, that’s enough of that. The Cut has to hit happy hour and “MAKE IT” to the couch by 9 EST so the Cut can report back to you early tomorrow with a thorough recap of tonight’s episode. Auf Wiedersehen.
